Engraved and published in London by Emanuel Bowen, Geographer to His Majesty, in 1747, this remarkable map, A New & Accurate Map of Scotland or North Britain, presents the Scottish Highlands, Lowlands, and islands with exceptional precision and artistry.
The map includes an inset of the Shetland Islands, as well as detailed tables of shires and parliamentary boroughs, annotated with cartographic notes drawn from the latest astronomical and geographic observations of the time.
Issued in Bowen’s A Complete System of Geography, this work exemplifies the Golden Age of British cartography, where maps combined empirical science with intricate engraving and decorative beauty.
Restored and printed on archival paper, this piece offers a striking portrayal of 18th-century Scotland, when cartographers first captured its rugged landscapes with both accuracy and grandeur.
